It seems that if you have a common home directory that you reuse from

eliminate--I just cleared out all gconf* gnome* gtk* metacity folders
and now Fedora 15 RC2 goes into the shell when logging on to the
desktop. Before I had to issue a gnome-shell --replace in a terminal.
I wonder what other problems reusing was/is causing?
This is probably just

it with a clean configuration because less stuff is happening at startup
so gnome-session-is-accelerated manages to complete in time.
